Summary

AI-generated summary, report an error

This bill would require the Secretary of Defense to publish, and update at least every 90 days, lists of dietary supplement ingredients and performance-enhancing substances that members of the Armed Forces are not allowed to use. The lists would be posted on a website, in a searchable database, and as a downloadable file. A commanding officer could choose not to discipline or separate a service member who possessed or used a supplement with a listed ingredient (other than a federally scheduled controlled substance) if it is a first offense, the member acted in good faith, and the member agrees to education, counseling, or drug testing. Possessing such a supplement would not count as drug abuse under military law, and the Department of Defense would have to update related rules and its supplement safety website and report to Congress.
